a very small Live CD shaped to look and act like Puppy Linux.

Quirky Debian Buster64-8.9.4

Post by scsijon »

I had a couple of requests for it if I released it, so though i'd make it an open topic.

Is anyone interested in having available a iso of barry's quirky buster64 updated?
Last version he did was 8.8.1 when he shut the project.

It's an iso about 725Meg with devx included in the install, i'm not one who likes to have them separated. IT also has xine and QT5 included, something a lot of my packages use.
It will be on a come-as-it-is, ie no warranty or help though.
I will add the two files DISTRO_PKG_SPECS-debian-buster and the DISTRO_SPECS somewhere here soon, so others can build, fix any problems found, and improve it if they want.
It was built using barry's woofq quirky branch, which is what he built his on. It's NOT a woof-CE build.

I built it as a prereq test stage before 'playing' with building either a opensuse or venom based quirky. I haven't decided which to build yet.

Yes, I am very interested in having available an iso.

Quirky is simply too good to be forgotten.

I have remastered 8.8.1 to my needs and use it daily as my main distro.

I also have contributed some minor bugfixes for previous versions.

I am interested in any instructions how to build Quirky and what are the system requirements.

Thank you for your interest in sharing your knowledge.

This topic doesn't belong here, but not sure where then, any moderator can move it to the correct section ? (and then delete this post).
